During a trial at Tazewell Court House,
Va, which took place recently, counsel ac-
cused a witness OF perjury; the witness inn
mediately retorted that the counsel not only
made an invariable practice Of walking round
the truth, but at times told lies that would
have shocked Ananias. AT this juncture
both gentlemen drew revolvers and had
high old time OF it with the six shooters. On
tho first shot being fired, the judge promptly
disappeared under his desk. Crack crack
crack echoed through the court till the
shooting irons were emptied. Then five
stretchers were brought in, and five wounded
men were carried out. One was the learned
counsel. After their removal the judge eau
tiously crept from his place of shelter,
mounted the bench, rebuked the witness and
thu trial was resumed. -London Judy.

What earn" Saws of Paris.

Paris is endowed with perpetual life. The
made beauty ii scientific study, and what with
its paint and powder, its rouge pot, and its
enamel, it looks like the creation Of an Alad-
din's lamp III a single night rather than the
growth of many centuries. Everything is
new in Paris and the whole city appears to
have jumped out of bandbOx. 1t is hard to
imagine that it was well-known town when
Christ was CTucified, and that its foundations
had been laid when Julius Cesar was sucking
his thumbs and blinking his little eyes as a
raw, red baby. We Americans speak of
Washington city as the coming Paris of the
west Tie broad streets and shady avenues
are laid out with the same regularity, and it
has much the same climate, and it is to be the
future social, artistic, scientific, literary and
pleasure city of the western hemisphere
Already its residences suIpass in exterior
beauty those of Paris, and few centuries
from now it may take the place of Paris
Washington is only ninety years old, Paris is
over 1900. When Paris was 1000 years of
age she had not surpassed in population that
of the Washington of ninety. When Co.
lumbus discovered America, Paris was a city
of over 200, 600 people, or as large as Clevc-
land, and it had reached the present size Of
Chicago before Washington was determined
upon as the capital of the United States. II
now has $500, 600 people, and it is Just about
twenty times as big, as lively, and as beau
tiful as our national capitaL-Frank g.

Children of Noted authors.

Oliver Wendell Holmes, lately re-
turned from his greatly hOnOred journey
abroad, will have no successor to his au-
thorial renOwn. His son, named after
him, is a conspicuous barrister, and at
present on the bench in Boston. He went
to war at the head of q company in a
Massachusetts regiment, and his father
wrote very entertaining article in The
Atlantic, My Search After the Cap
tain 1t gave, as [ remember an ac-
count of how he had gone to the front to
look after his boy, who had been reported
seriously if not MORALLY wounded, and
encountered him sound and we'll with
the greeting, GLOW are you, dad?"
James Russell Lowell, who is thought
to have been largely instrumental in pre-
pairing the British mind to receive his
friend Holmes with cordial, generous hos
pitality, had q son years ago, but he died,
/ believe, in Italy, when little more than
a infant. His only other child, a daugh-
ter, is the wife of young Burnett, son Of
the proprietor of Burnett'S cOcOaine. The
former owns the celebrated DeerfOOt farm
Massachusetts, and is reputed to be d
very pleasant, interesting, high minded
fellow. 1t may seem somewhat incon-
gruOus at first that the daughter of Low
ell, who is as distinguished III lineage as
any citizen Of the republic, should wed
man known mainly in connection with
hair restorative. But this is only a seem
ing, and is, besides, q narrow, snobbish
view to hold in an enlightened democ-
racy like ours.-Cor. Chicago Times.

A Decision.

In the case OF II. r. Macfarlane vs.
Cecil Brown, action of replevin. Jury
waived. Mr.. Justice Preston gave the
following decision yesterday:
This is an action of replevin for a horse
and comes before the Court on appeal
from a judgment of the Police Court
Honolulu, IN favor of the plaintiff.
The real defendant is Mr.. James Dodd
who left the horse i'll question in the
charge of the nominal defendant, Mr..
Cecil Brown.
L am of opinion that the evidence sup
ports the plaintiffs claim and that the
contention of the defendants counsel, that
he exchanged mare belonging to his
wife for the horse in question, while he
was the servant of the plaintiff and with
the plaintiffs knowledge, is not supported
by the testimony.
l therefore find in favor of the plaintiff
affirming the judgment of the lower Court
and direct that judgment be entered &C
cordingly, with costs.

CITY GOVERNMENT.

A Board OF Freeholders, at latest date
rom the Coast, had drafted a charter for
the city and county of San Francisco. 1t
IS a very elaborate document, and is the
rIird of its kind prepared since the New
Constitution went into effect The two
-evious charters were defeated by pop
ar vote, great deal OF money having
zen spent by rings, monopolies and
1ieves to debauch the voters and secure
.heir several rejection. We do not an
-cipate any better fortune for the pres
mt instrument on April 18th, as it would
put an end to several of the existing
Uethods of public plumber in the con-
servation of which so many are inter
s5oed. To our thinking San Francisco
o1uld get along very we'll with the old
installation Act, but the trouble is

RUM0RED EXTRA SESSION.

Rumors Of an extra session OF the
Legislature are rife. So far as these
rumors are simply guesses they con
rern the public lit tie, and as yet they
ack any official sanction. There is
misapprehension, however, abroad re-
garding the converting OF an extra ses-
sion. 1t is generally supposed, that the
Kings Privy Council of State must first
approve the resolution to convene the
legislative Assembly. Such is not the
case. 1t rests entirely in the discretion
Of His Majesty, but by a Constitutional
fiction the Cabinet are responsible. Ar
ticle 46 of the Constitution reads: "The
legislative body shall assemble bien-
nially, in the month of April, and at
such other time as the King may Judge
necessary, for the purpose of seeking the
welfare of the nation. This body shall
DC styled the Legislature of the Ha-
Waiian Kingdom" Now, it is perfectly
clear from this provision of the Organic
law that the King is the sole judge of
The necessity for converting the Legisla
i've Assembly in extra session, and that
it does not in any way concern the Privy
Council, which, by Article Al of the
Constitution has the function of " advis-
ng the King in all matters for the good
of the State, wherein He may require its
advice, and for assisting Him in admin
STEERING the Executive affairs of the
Kingdom in such manner as he may
direct" The Privy Council, it is true,
mas been granted certain powers on a
variety of subjects by specific enactment,
out the foregoing are its constitutional
unctioDs, and it will be seen that they
re exceedingly circumscribed and de-
pendent very much upon the Royal
pleasure in their exercise. Article 15-of
ne Constitution gives the Privy Council
md Cabinet Joint power to call a special
Legislative session. 1t is well, therefore,
D know where the responsibility for an
extra session would be under the Con-
stitutiOn
